Fluxes of nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), and methane (CH4) between soils and the atmosphere were measured monthly for one year in a 77-year-old temperate hardwood forest following
a simulated hurricane blowdown. Emissions of CO2 and uptake of CH4 for the control plot were 4.92 MT C ha−1 y−1 and 3.87 kg C ha−1 y−1, respectively, and were not significantly different from the blowdown plot. Annual N2O emissions in the control plot (0.23 kg N ha−1 y−1) were low and were reduced 78% by the blowdown. Net N mineralization was not affected by the blowdown. Net nitrification
was greater in the blowdown than in the control, however, the absolute rate of net nitrification, as well as the proportion
of mineralized N that was nitrified, remained low. Fluxes of CO2 and CH4 were correlated positively to soil temperature, and CH, uptake showed a negative relationship to soil moisture. Substantial
resprouting and leafing out of downed or damaged trees, and increased growth of understory vegetation following the blowdown,
were probably responsible for the relatively small differences in soil temperature, moisture, N availability, and net N mineralization
and net nitrification between the control and blowdown plots, thus resulting in no change in CO2 or CH4 fluxes, and no increase in N2O emissions. 相似文献

Nitrogen oxide gas emissions from temperate forest soils receiving long-term nitrogen inputs 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
RODNEY T. VENTEREA PETER M. GROFFMAN LOUIS V. VERCHOT† ALISON H. MAGILL‡ JOHN D. ABER‡ PAUL A. STEUDLER§ 《Global Change Biology》2003,9(3):346-357
From spring 2000 through fall 2001, we measured nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) fluxes in two temperate forest sites in Massachusetts, USA that have been treated since 1988 with different levels of nitrogen (N) to simulate elevated rates of atmospheric N deposition. Plots within a pine stand that were treated with either 50 or 150 kg N ha?1 yr?1 above background displayed consistently elevated NO fluxes (100–200 µg N m?2 h?1) compared to control plots, while only the higher N treatment plot within a mixed hardwood stand displayed similarly elevated NO fluxes. Annual NO emissions estimated from monthly sampling accounted for 3.0–3.7% of N inputs to the high‐N plots and 8.3% of inputs to the Pine low‐N plot. Nitrous oxide fluxes in the N‐treated plots were generally < 10% of NO fluxes. Net nitrification rates (NRs) and NO production rates measured in the laboratory displayed patterns that were consistent with field NO fluxes. Total N oxide gas flux was positively correlated with contemporaneous measurements of NR and concentration. Acetylene inhibited both nitrification and NO production, indicating that autotrophic nitrification was responsible for the elevated NO production. Soil pH was negatively correlated with N deposition rate. Low levels (3–11 µg N kg?1) of nitrite () were detected in mineral soils from both sites. Kinetic models describing NO production as a function of the protonated form of (nitrous acid [HNO2]) adequately described the mineral soil data. The results indicate that atmospheric deposition may generate losses of gaseous NO from forest soils by promoting nitrification, and that the response may vary significantly between forest types under similar climatic regimes. The lowering of pH resulting from nitrification and/or directly from deposition may also play a role by promoting reactions involving HNO2. 相似文献

Tillage and Nitrogen Application Effects on Nitrous and Nitric Oxide Emissions from Irrigated Corn Fields 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A 2-year study was conducted to investigate the potential of no-till cropping systems to reduce N2O and NO emissions under different N application rates in an irrigated corn field in northeastern Colorado. Flux measurements
were begun in the spring of 2003, using vented (N2O) and dynamic (NO) chambers, one to three times per week, year round, within plots that were cropped continuously to corn
(Zea mays L.) under conventional-till (CT) and no-till (NT). Plots were fertilized at planting in late April with rates of 0, 134 and
224 kg N ha−1 and corn was harvested in late October or early November each year. N2O and NO fluxes increased linearly with N application rate in both years. Compared with CT, NT did not significantly affect
the emission of N2O but resulted in much lower emission of NO. In 2003 and 2004 corn growing seasons, the increase in N2O-N emitted per kg ha−1 of fertilizer N added was 14.5 and 4.1 g ha−1 for CT, and 11.2 and 5.5 g ha−1 for NT, respectively. However, the increase in NO-N emitted per kg ha−1 of fertilizer N added was only 3.6 and 7.4 g ha−1 for CT and 1.6 and 2.0 g ha−1 for NT in 2003 and 2004, respectively. In the fallow season (November 2003 to April 2004), much greater N2O (2.0–3.1 times) and NO (13.1–16.8 times) were emitted from CT than from NT although previous N application did not show
obvious carry-over effect on both gas emissions. Results from this study reveal that NT has potential to reduce NO emission
without an obvious change in N2O emission under continuous irrigated corn cropping compared to CT. 相似文献

Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from grazed grasslands are estimated to be approximately 28% of global anthropogenic N2O emissions. Estimating the N2O flux from grassland soils is difficult because of its episodic nature. This study aimed to quantify the N2O emissions, the annual N2O flux and the emission factor (EF), and also to investigate the influence of environmental and soil variables controlling
N2O emissions from grazed grassland. Nitrous oxide emissions were measured using static chambers at eight different grasslands
in the South of Ireland from September 2007 to August 2009. The instantaneous N2O flux values ranged from -186 to 885.6 μg N2O-N m−2 h−1 and the annual sum ranged from 2 ± 3.51 to 12.55 ± 2.83 kg N2O-N ha−1 y−1 for managed sites. The emission factor ranged from 1.3 to 3.4%. The overall EF of 1.81% is about 69% higher than the Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) default EF value of 1.25% which is currently used by the Irish Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) to estimate N2O emission in Ireland. At an N applied of approximately 300 kg ha−1 y−1, the N2O emissions are approximately 5.0 kg N2O-N ha−1 y−1, whereas the N2O emissions double to approximately 10 kg N ha−1 for an N applied of 400 kg N ha−1 y−1. The sites with higher fluxes were associated with intensive N-input and frequent cattle grazing. The N2O flux at 17°C was five times greater than that at 5°C. Similarly, the N2O emissions increased with increasing water filled pore space (WFPS) with maximum N2O emissions occurring at 60–80% WFPS. We conclude that N application below 300 kg ha−1 y−1 and restricted grazing on seasonally wet soils will reduce N2O emissions. 相似文献

Nitrogen Transformations in Flowpaths Leading from Soils to Streams in Amazon Forest and Pasture 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The modification of large areas of tropical forest to agricultural uses has consequences for the movement of inorganic nitrogen
(N) from land to water. Various biogeochemical pathways in soils and riparian zones can influence the movement and retention
of N within watersheds and affect the quantity exported in streams. We used the concentrations of NO3
− and NH4
+ in different hydrological flowpaths leading from upland soils to streams to investigate inorganic N transformations in adjacent
watersheds containing tropical forest and established cattle pasture in the southwestern Brazilian Amazon Basin. High NO3
− concentrations in forest soil solution relative to groundwater indicated a large removal of N mostly as NO3
− in flowpaths leading from soil to groundwater. Forest groundwater NO3
− concentrations were lower than in other Amazon sites where riparian zones have been implicated as important N sinks. Based
on water budgets for these watersheds, we estimated that 7.3–10.3 kg N ha−1 y−1 was removed from flowpaths between 20 and 100 cm, and 7.1–10.2 kg N ha−1 y−1 was removed below 100 cm and the top of the groundwater. N removal from vertical flowpaths in forest exceeded previously
measured N2O emissions of 3.0 kg N ha−1 y−1 and estimated emissions of NO of 1.4 kg N ha−1 y−1. Potential fates for this large amount of nitrate removal in forest soils include plant uptake, denitrification, and abiotic
N retention. Conversion to pasture shifted the system from dominance by processes producing and consuming NO3
− to one dominated by NH4
+, presumably the product of lower rates of net N mineralization and net nitrification in pasture compared with forest. In
pasture, no hydrological flowpaths contained substantial amounts of NO3
− and estimated N removal from soil vertical flowpaths was 0.2 kg N ha−1 y−1 below the depth of 100 cm. This contrasts with the extent to which agricultural sources dominate N inputs to groundwater
and stream water in many temperate regions. This could change, however, if pasture agriculture in the tropics shifts toward
intensive crop cultivation. 相似文献

Soil Phosphorus Fractions and Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation across a Substrate-Age Gradient in Hawaii 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We evaluated soil phosphorus (P) fractions, other soil characteristics, and rates of symbiotic N2 fixation across a substrate-age gradient in Hawaii that was dominated by the leguminous tree Acacia koa (koa). Patterns of soil P observed on this gradient were compared to those on a slightly wetter gradient dominated by the
nonfixer Metrosideros polymorpha (ohia). Along both gradients, concentrations of primary-mineral P fell sharply between the young and intermediate-aged sites,
while labile inorganic P declined most steeply between the intermediate-aged and old sites. The most marked difference between
the two gradients was that total soil carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and P, as well as nonoccluded organic P, were more variable
across the ohia gradient, increasing to the intermediate-aged sites, then declining sharply at the old site. On the koa gradient,
specific nitrogenase activity, measured by the acetylene-reduction (AR) assay, decreased three- to eightfold between the young
site and the intermediate-aged and old sites, respectively. Nodule biomass showed no clear pattern. N2 fixation rates, estimated by combining AR activity and nodule biomass measurements, were up to 8 kg N · ha−1 · y−1 at the young site and no more than 2 kg N · ha−1 · y−1 at the older sites, suggesting that koa may be a modest source of N in these Hawaiian forests.

Soil nitrogen cycling and nitrous oxide flux in a Rocky Mountain Douglas-fir forest: effects of fertilization,irrigation and carbon addition 总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2
Pamela A. Matson Stith Thoma Gower Carol Volkmann Christine Billow Charles C. Grier 《Biogeochemistry》1992,18(2):101-117
Nitrous oxide fluxes and soil nitrogen transformations were measured in experimentally-treated high elevation Douglas-fir
forests in northwestern New Mexico, USA. On an annual basis, forests that were fertilized with 200 kg N/ha emitted an average
of 0.66 kg/ha of N2O-N, with highest fluxes occurring in July and August when soils were both warm and wet. Control, irrigated, and woodchip
treated plots were not different from each other, and annual average fluxes ranged from 0.03 to 0.23 kg/ha. Annual net nitrogen
mineralization and nitrate production were estimated in soil and forest floor usingin situ incubations; fertilized soil mineralized 277 kg ha−1 y−1 in contrast to 18 kg ha−1 y−1 in control plots. Relative recovery of15NH4-N applied to soil in laboratory incubations was principally in the form of NO3-N in the fertilized soils, while recovery was mostly in microbial biomass-N in the other treatments. Fertilization apparently
added nitrogen that exceeded the heterotrophic microbial demand, resulting in higher rates of nitrate production and higher
nitrous oxide fluxes. Despite the elevated nitrous oxide emission resulting from fertilization, we estimate that global inputs
of nitrogen into forests are not currently contributing significantly to the increasing concentrations of nitrous oxide in
the atmosphere. 相似文献

Gross rates of N mineralization and nitrification, and soil–atmosphere fluxes of N2O, NO and NO2 were measured at differently grazed and ungrazed steppe grassland sites in the Xilin river catchment, Inner Mongolia, P. R.
China, during the 2004 and 2005 growing season. The experimental sites were a plot ungrazed since 1979 (UG79), a plot ungrazed
since 1999 (UG99), a plot moderately grazed in winter (WG), and an overgrazed plot (OG), all in close vicinity to each other.
Gross rates of N mineralization and nitrification determined at in situ soil moisture and soil temperature conditions were
in a range of 0.5–4.1 mg N kg−1 soil dry weight day−1. In 2005, gross N turnover rates were significantly higher at the UG79 plot than at the UG99 plot, which in turn had significantly
higher gross N turnover rates than the WG and OG plots. The WG and the OG plot were not significantly different in gross ammonification
and in gross nitrification rates. Site differences in SOC content, bulk density and texture could explain only less than 15%
of the observed site differences in gross N turnover rates. N2O and NO
x
flux rates were very low during both growing seasons. No significant differences in N trace gas fluxes were found between
plots. Mean values of N2O fluxes varied between 0.39 and 1.60 μg N2O-N m−2 h−1, equivalent to 0.03–0.14 kg N2O-N ha−1 y−1, and were considerably lower than previously reported for the same region. NO
x
flux rates ranged between 0.16 and 0.48 μg NO
x
-N m−2 h−1, equivalent to 0.01–0.04 kg NO
x
-N ha−1 y−1, respectively. N2O fluxes were significantly correlated with soil temperature and soil moisture. The correlations, however, explained only
less than 20% of the flux variance. 相似文献

In a combined field and laboratory study in the southwest of Burkina Faso, we quantified soil-atmosphere N2O and NO exchange. N2O emissions were measured during two field campaigns throughout the growing seasons 2005 and 2006 at five different experimental
sites, that is, a natural savanna site and four agricultural sites planted with sorghum (n = 2), cotton and peanut. The agricultural fields were not irrigated and not fertilized. Although N2O exchange mostly fluctuated between −2 and 8 μg N2O–N m−2 h−1, peak N2O emissions of 10–35 μg N2O–N m−2 h−1 during the second half of June 2005, and up to 150 μg N2O–N m−2 h−1 at the onset of the rainy season 2006, were observed at the native savanna site, whereas the effect of the first rain event
on N2O emissions at the crop sites was low or even not detectable. Additionally, a fertilizer experiment was conducted at a sorghum
field that was divided into three plots receiving different amounts of N fertilizer (plot A: 140 kg N ha−1; plot B: 52.5 kg N ha−1; plot C: control). During the first 3 weeks after fertilization, only a minor increase in N2O emissions at the two fertilized plots was detected. After 24 days, however, N2O emission rates increased exponentially at plot A up to a mean of 80 μg N2O–N m−2 h−1, whereas daily mean values at plot B reached only 19 μg N2O–N m−2 h−1, whereas N2O flux rates at plot C remained unchanged. The calculated annual N2O emission of the nature reserve site amounted to 0.52 kg N2O–N ha−1 a−1 in 2005 and to 0.67 kg N2O–N ha−1 a−1 in 2006, whereas the calculated average annual N2O release of the crop sites was only 0.19 kg N2O–N ha−1 a−1 and 0.20 kg N2O–N ha−1 a−1 in 2005 and 2006, respectively. In a laboratory study, potential N2O and NO formation under different soil moisture regimes were determined. Single wetting of dry soil to medium soil water
content with subsequent drying caused the highest increase in N2O and NO emissions with maximum fluxes occurring 1 day after wetting. The stimulating effect lasted for 3–4 days. A weaker
stimulation of N2O and NO fluxes was detected during daily wetting of soil to medium water content, whereas no significant stimulating effect
of single or daily wetting to high soil water content (>67% WHCmax) was observed. This study demonstrates that the impact of land-use change in West African savanna on N trace gas emissions
is smaller—with the caveat that there could have been potentially higher N2O and NO emissions during the initial conversion—than the effect of timing and distribution of rainfall and of the likely
increase in nitrogen fertilization in the future. 相似文献

N2O, CH4 and CO2 emissions from seasonal tropical rainforests and a rubber plantation in Southwest China 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Christian Werner Xunhua Zheng Janwei Tang Baohua Xie Chunyan Liu Ralf Kiese Klaus Butterbach-Bahl 《Plant and Soil》2006,289(1-2):335-353
The main focus of this study was to evaluate the effects of soil moisture and temperature on temporal variation of N2O, CO2 and CH4 soil-atmosphere exchange at a primary seasonal tropical rainforest (PF) site in Southwest China and to compare these fluxes with fluxes from a secondary forest (SF) and a rubber plantation (RP) site. Agroforestry systems, such as rubber plantations, are increasingly replacing primary and secondary forest systems in tropical Southwest China and thus effect the N2O emission in these regions on a landscape level. The mean N2O emission at site PF was 6.0 ± 0.1 SE μg N m−2 h−1. Fluxes of N2O increased from <5 μg N m−2 h−1 during dry season conditions to up to 24.5 μg N m−2 h−1 with re-wetting of the soil by the onset of first rainfall events. Comparable fluxes of N2O were measured in the SF and RP sites, where mean N2O emissions were 7.3 ± 0.7 SE μg N m−2 h−1 and 4.1 ± 0.5 SE μg N m−2 h−1, respectively. The dependency of N2O fluxes on soil moisture levels was demonstrated in a watering experiment, however, artificial rainfall only influenced the timing of N2O emission peaks, not the total amount of N2O emitted. For all sites, significant positive correlations existed between N2O emissions and both soil moisture and soil temperature. Mean CH4 uptake rates were highest at the PF site (−29.5 ± 0.3 SE μg C m−2 h−1), slightly lower at the SF site (−25.6 ± 1.3 SE μg C m−2 h−1) and lowest for the RP site (−5.7 ± 0.5 SE μg C m−2 h−1). At all sites, CH4 uptake rates were negatively correlated with soil moisture, which was also reflected in the lower uptake rates measured in the watering experiment. In contrast to N2O emissions, CH4 uptake did not significantly correlate with soil temperature at the SF and RP sites, and only weakly correlated at the PF site. Over the 2 month measurement period, CO2 emissions at the PF site increased significantly from 50 mg C m−2 h−1 up to 100 mg C m−2 h−1 (mean value 68.8 ± 0.8 SE mg C m−2 h−1), whereas CO2 emissions at the SF and RP site where quite stable and varied only slightly around mean values of 38.0 ± 1.8 SE mg C m−2 h−1 (SF) and 34.9 ± 1.1 SE mg C m−2 h−1 (RP). A dependency of soil CO2 emissions on changes in soil water content could be demonstrated for all sites, thus, the watering experiment revealed significantly higher CO2 emissions as compared to control chambers. Correlation of CO2 emissions with soil temperature was significant at the PF site, but weak at the SF and not evident at the RP site. Even though we demonstrated that N and C trace gas fluxes significantly varied on subdaily and daily scales, weekly measurements would be sufficient if only the sink/ source strength of non-managed tropical forest sites needs to be identified. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of N fertilization and the presence of N2 fixing leguminous trees on soil fluxes of greenhouse gases. For a one year period, we measured soil fluxes of nitrous oxide
(N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), related soil parameters (temperature, water-filled pore space, mineral nitrogen content, N mineralization potential) and
litterfall in two highly fertilized (250 kg N ha−1 year−1) coffee cultivation: a monoculture (CM) and a culture shaded by the N2 fixing legume species Inga densiflora (CIn). Nitrogen fertilizer addition significantly influenced N2O emissions with 84% of the annual N2O emitted during the post fertilization periods, and temporarily increased soil respiration and decreased CH4 uptakes. The higher annual N2O emissions from the shaded plantation (5.8 ± 0.3 kg N ha−1 year−1) when compared to that from the monoculture (4.3 ± 0.1 kg N ha−1 year−1) was related to the higher N input through litterfall (246 ± 16 kg N ha−1 year−1) and higher potential soil N mineralization rate (3.7 ± 0.2 mg N kg−1 d.w. d−1) in the shaded cultivation when compared to the monoculture (153 ± 6.8 kg N ha−1 year−1 and 2.2 ± 0.2 mg N kg−1 d.w. d−1). This confirms that the presence of N2 fixing shade trees can increase N2O emissions. Annual CO2 and CH4 fluxes of both systems were similar (8.4 ± 2.6 and 7.5 ± 2.3 t C-CO2 ha−1 year−1, −1.1 ± 1.5 and 3.3 ± 1.1 kg C-CH4 ha−1 year−1, respectively in the CIn and CM plantations) but, unexpectedly increased during the dry season. 相似文献

In their review of 24 studies of forest nitrogen (N) budgets, Binkley and others (2000) found that only one of them supported
the conclusion that an N accumulation of more than 25 kg N ha−1 y−1 is possible without known symbiotic N2–fixing plants. They contended that, given how well the N cycle is known, new N accumulation pathways are unlikely. They also
concluded that the Hubbard Brook sandbox study (Bormann and others 1993) was insufficiently replicated and had low precision
in vegetation and soil estimates. Here we reevaluate and extend the sandbox analysis and place the findings in a broader context.
Using multiple methods of estimating vegetation N accumulation in pine sandboxes, we arrived at results that differed from
the reported rates but still strongly supported large biomass N accumulation. The original study's conclusions about soil
N changes were strengthened when new evidence showed that N accumulated in lower horizons and that the sandboxes were successfully
homogenized at the beginning of the experiment. Unexplained ecosystem N accumulation ranged from about 40 to 150 kg ha−1 y−1, with 95% confidence intervals that did not include zero. No evidence was found that could balance the sandbox ecosystem
N budgets without adding unexplained N. Unreplicated experiments, such as the sandboxes, can explore the possibility that
N can accumulate in ways not explainable by mass balance analysis, but they cannot quantify the frequency and extent of the
phenomenon. New studies should combine substantive microbiological, mass balance, and process research using multiple direct
measures of N2 fixation.

Soils are among the important sources of atmospheric nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O), acting as a critical role in atmospheric chemistry. Updated data derived from 114 peer‐reviewed publications with 520 field measurements were synthesized using meta‐analysis procedure to examine the N fertilizer‐induced soil NO and the combined NO+N2O emissions across global soils. Besides factors identified in earlier reviews, additional factors responsible for NO fluxes were fertilizer type, soil C/N ratio, crop residue incorporation, tillage, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, drought and biomass burning. When averaged across all measurements, soil NO‐N fluxes were estimated to be 4.06 kg ha?1 yr?1, with the greatest (9.75 kg ha?1 yr?1) in vegetable croplands and the lowest (0.11 kg ha?1 yr?1) in rice paddies. Soil NO emissions were more enhanced by synthetic N fertilizer (+38%), relative to organic (+20%) or mixed N (+18%) sources. Compared with synthetic N fertilizer alone, synthetic N fertilizer combined with nitrification inhibitors substantially reduced soil NO emissions by 81%. The global mean direct emission factors of N fertilizer for NO (EFNO) and combined NO+N2O (EFc) were estimated to be 1.16% and 2.58%, with 95% confidence intervals of 0.71–1.61% and 1.81–3.35%, respectively. Forests had the greatest EFNO (2.39%). Within the croplands, the EFNO (1.71%) and EFc (4.13%) were the greatest in vegetable cropping fields. Among different chemical N fertilizer varieties, ammonium nitrate had the greatest EFNO (2.93%) and EFc (5.97%). Some options such as organic instead of synthetic N fertilizer, decreasing N fertilizer input rate, nitrification inhibitor and low irrigation frequency could be adopted to mitigate soil NO emissions. More field measurements over multiyears are highly needed to minimize the estimate uncertainties and mitigate soil NO emissions, particularly in forests and vegetable croplands. 相似文献

Rains at the end of the dry season can trigger increases in emissions of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide from forest and pasture soils in the Amazon Basin. The relative importance of the rain-stimulated emissions in the seasonal and annual budgets of these nitrogen gases for forests and pastures in the western Amazon is not well established. We measured soil emissions of NO and N2O from a forest and two pastures, 11 and 26 years old, after a simulated rain event. Wetting the soil resulted in very small pulses of NO or N2O from forest soils and no significant NO or N2O pulses from the pastures. We estimated that in the forest, the amounts of each gas emitted from pulses during the dry to wet transition period represented 3.4% of the NO and 1.8% of the N2O dry-season emissions, but amounted to less than 2% of the annual emissions of either gas. Total N oxide emissions of 5.6 kg N/ha/yr from the forest were nearly evenly divided between NO (42%) and N2O (58%). The emissions of NO were evenly distributed over the wet and dry seasons, while over 84% N2O fluxes occurred during the wet season. 相似文献

Total emissions of N2O from drained organic forest soils in Sweden were estimated using an equation linking the C:N ratio of the soil to N2O emissions. Information on soil C:N ratios was derived from a national database. It was estimated that the emissions from
Histosols amount to 2,820 tonnes N2O a−1. This is almost five times the value calculated for the same soils using the method suggested by the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change: 580 tonnes N2O a−1. The higher value in the present study can mainly be explained by improved accuracy of estimates of N2O emissions from nutrient-rich soils, including former agricultural soils. In Sweden, in addition to 0.94 Mha of drained Histosols,
there are 0.55 Mha of other types of drained organic soils. The annual emissions from these soils were estimated to amount
to 1,890 tonnes of N2O. The total emission value calculated for drained organic forest soils was thus 4,700 tonnes N2O a−1, which, if added, would increase the current estimate of the Swedish anthropogenic N2O source strength by 18%. Of these emissions, 88% occur from sites with C:N ratios lower than 25. The exponential relationship
between C:N ratio and N2O emissions, in combination with a scarcity of data, resulted in large confidence intervals around the estimates. However,
by using the C:N ratio-based method, N2O emission estimates can be calculated from a variable that is readily available in databases. Also, the recent findings that
there are exceptionally large emissions of N2O from the most nitrogen-rich drained organic forest soils are taken into account. 相似文献

To evaluate the impact of N placement depth and no-till (NT) practice on the emissions of NO, N2O, CH4 and CO2 from soils, we conducted two N placement experiments in a long-term tillage experiment site in northeastern Colorado in 2004.
Trace gas flux measurements were made 2–3 times per week, in zero-N fertilizer plots that were cropped continuously to corn
(Zea mays L.) under conventional-till (CT) and NT. Three N placement depths, replicated four times (5, 10 and 15 cm in Exp. 1 and 0,
5 and 10 cm in Exp. 2, respectively) were used. Liquid urea–ammonium nitrate (UAN, 224 kg N ha−1) was injected to the desired depth in the CT- or NT-soils in each experiment. Mean flux rates of NO, N2O, CH4 and CO2 ranged from 3.9 to 5.2 μg N m−2 h−1, 60.5 to 92.4 μg N m−2 h−1, −0.8 to 0.5 μg C m−2 h−1, and 42.1 to 81.7 mg C m−2 h−1 in both experiments, respectively. Deep N placement (10 and 15 cm) resulted in lower NO and N2O emissions compared with shallow N placement (0 and 5 cm) while CH4 and CO2 emissions were not affected by N placement in either experiment. Compared with N placement at 5 cm, for instance, averaged
N2O emissions from N placement at 10 cm were reduced by more than 50% in both experiments. Generally, NT decreased NO emission
and CH4 oxidation but increased N2O emissions compared with CT irrespective of N placement depths. Total net global warming potential (GWP) for N2O, CH4 and CO2 was reduced by deep N placement only in Exp. 1 but was increased by NT in both experiments. The study results suggest that
deep N placement (e.g., 10 cm) will be an effective option for reducing N oxide emissions and GWP from both fertilized CT-
and NT-soils. 相似文献

Nitrous oxide and methane fluxes of a pristine slope mire in the German National Park Harz Mountains
Nadine Tauchnitz Rainer Brumme Sabine Bernsdorf Ralph Meissner 《Plant and Soil》2008,303(1-2):131-138
Pristine peatlands covered by Histosols (bogs and fens) with high water table and a restricted oxygen (O2) availability are known to have low emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) but may be a significant source for atmospheric methane (CH4) which are both important greenhouse gases. For the first time N2O and CH4 fluxes of a pristine slope mire in the German Harz Mountains have been monitored. Previously reported peatlands are characterised
by anaerobic conditions due to high water table levels. Slope mires monitored here receive O2 through slope water inflow. Gas fluxes have been monitored deploying closed chamber method on a central non-forested area
and a forested area at the periphery of the slope mire. By means of groundwater piezometers water table levels, ammonium and
nitrate contents as well as hydro-chemical variables like oxygen content and redox potential of the mire pore water have been
concurrently measured with trace gas fluxes at both monitoring sites of the slope mire. The slope mire took up small amounts
of atmospheric methane at a rate of −0.02 ± 0.01 kg C ha−1 year−1 revealing no significant difference between the forested and non-forested site. Higher uptake rates were observed during
low water table level. In contrast to pristine peatlands influx of oxygen containing pore water into slope mire does limit
reduction processes and resultant CH4 emission. N2O fluxes of the forested and non-forested sites of the slope mire did not differ and amounted to 0.25 ± 0.44 kg N ha−1 year−1. Higher emissions were observed at low water table levels and during thawing periods. In spite of favourable conditions N2O fluxes of the slope mire have been comparable to those of pristine peatlands. 相似文献

Late-successional forests in the upper Great Lakes region are susceptible to nitrogen (N) saturation and subsequent nitrate
(NO3−) leaching loss. Endemic wind disturbances (i.e., treefall gaps) alter tree uptake and soil N dynamics; and, gaps are particular
susceptible to NO3− leaching loss. Inorganic N was measured throughout two snow-free periods in throughfall, forest floor leachates, and mineral
soil leachates in gaps (300–2,000 m2, 6–9 years old), gap-edges, and closed forest plots in late-successional northern hardwood, hemlock, and northern hardwood–hemlock
stands. Differences in forest water inorganic N among gaps, edges, and closed forest plots were consistent across these cover
types: NO3− inputs in throughfall were significantly greater in undisturbed forest plots compared with gaps and edges; forest floor leachate
NO3− was significantly greater in gaps compared to edges and closed forest plots; and soil leachate NO3− was significantly greater in gaps compared to the closed forest. Significant differences in forest water ammonium and pH
were not detected. Compared to suspected N-saturated forests with high soil NO3− leaching, undisturbed forest plots in these late-successional forests are not losing NO3− (net annual gain of 2.8 kg ha−1) and are likely not N-saturated. Net annual NO3− losses were observed in gaps (1.3 kg ha−1) and gap-edges (0.2 kg ha−1), but we suspect these N leaching losses are a result of decreased plant uptake and increased soil N mineralization associated
with disturbance, and not N-saturation. 相似文献

Emissions of nitrous oxide from three tropical forests in Southern China in response to simulated nitrogen deposition 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) from the soil following simulated nitrogen (N) deposition in a disturbed (pine), a rehabilitated (pine and broadleaf mixed)
and a mature (monsoon evergreen broadleaf) tropical forest in southern China were studied. The following hypotheses were tested:
(1) addition of N will increase soil N2O emission in tropical forests; and (2) any observed increase will be more pronounced in the mature forest than in the disturbed
or rehabilitated forest due to the relatively high initial soil N concentration in the mature forest. The experiment was designed
with four N treatment levels (three replicates; 0, 50, 100, 150 kg N ha−1 year−1 for C (Control), LN (Low-N), MN (Medium-N), and HN (High-N) treatment, respectively) in the mature forest, but only three
levels in the disturbed and rehabilitated forests (C, LN and MN). Between October 2005 to September 2006, soil N2O flux was measured using static chamber and gas chromatography methodology. Nitrogen had been applied previously to the plots
since July 2003 and continued during soil N2O flux measurement period. The annual mean rates of soil N2O emission in the C plots were 24.1 ± 1.5, 26.2 ± 1.4, and 29.3 ± 1.6 μg N2O–N m−2 h−1 in the disturbed, rehabilitated and mature forest, respectively. There was a significant increase in soil N2O emission following N additions in the mature forest (38%, 41%, and 58% when compared to the C plots for the LN, MN, and
HN plots, respectively). In the disturbed forest a significant increase (35%) was observed in the MN plots, but not in the
LN plots. The rehabilitated forest showed no significant response to N additions. Increases in soil N2O emission occurred primarily in the cool-dry season (November, December and January). Our results suggest that the response
of soil N2O emission to N deposition in tropical forests in southern China may vary depending on the soil N status and land-use history
of the forest. 相似文献
